New "Localized" Nokia Tune Ringtones

The Nokia Tune, otherwise known as Grand Valse on some older Nokia handsets, has become the perennial tune one hears as the default ringtone when they buy a Nokia handset. Nokia recently came up with versions of this ring tone for the MIddle Eastern market (with a tip of the hat to Darla Mack):

Of the bunch, I think the old labeled "morearabic" is the best of the bunch. I might even go so far as to put it on my phone, though I hate the trouble of moving ringtones from phone to phone.

just a question .. how do u move ringtones frm phone to phone ? If you know its a lot of trouble.. u mus have done it once right.. cud u tell me or link me any help ?

I tend to use Bluetooth to copy ringtones from different phones. That assumes they aren't the 'built-in" ringtones on the phone or ones purchased from a carrier.

Some providers in the US, most notably Verizon, disable that specific functionality on the phones.

[this is good]

Hi. I am with Verizon (sigh) - if I had known I could not get the Nokia tune, I would have switched companies but I was a novice at ringtones. I've had 3 cell phones so far and never used a custom ringtone. I LOVE the version of the "Nokia tune" used in The Medium (tv show, it's the ringtone on the main character's phone)

It cut off what I was ASKING...

Can someone send me The Medium's version of Nokia tune to my cell phone? EM privately if need be destinyjul@aol.com. Long story.

The version of the Nokia Tune they use on Medium, if memory serves, was the old monophonic version of the current Nokia Tune (also called Grande Valse or Gran Vals). I have a still-functioning phone that plays that song. I've recorded it and I'll upload it to my audio archive for you.
